    Season 3, Episode 8 with Nick Elston, Inspirational Speaker on the Lived Experience of Mental Health, and Founder

    Nick Elston is an Inspirational Speaker on the Lived Experience of Mental Health, Transformational Speaking Coach, Founder of Forging People, and podcast host. Diagnosed with General Anxiety Disorder, Nick talks openly about his journey and experience of his own mental health. Nick recognised his introversion in 2016 and shares here that it's never about turning yourself into something your not. If you are quiet, and softly spoken how do you amplify your voice? Here we talk about emotional leadership and human connection: > Delivering your emotion across genuinely. > Vulnerability with a small v by showing more of yourself to break down barriers. > Executives not showing their vulnerability in a group. > Leaders often leading with their head. > Not everyone wants a solution. > Mixing socially post Covid. > Making the move to speaking. And Nick shares his desire for a legacy to be created. ** I hope you enjoyed this episode of Conversations with Quiet Leaders. A podcast dedicated to helping you to lean into the power of quiet, and how to harness your strengths to bring about your dreams that will shape your future.

    Season 3, Episode 6 with Edward Short, business consultant, leader, mentor, co-founder and former army professional

    Edward Short, founder of The Possibility Pod, is an independent business consultant, former business and army leader, mentor, and co-founder of vLancer, shares his story of how not wanting to work in the city led him to his commission in Sandhurst, before moving into the corporate world, then as an independent consultant. Ed isn't an introvert or quiet leader but he has vast experience in building communities and leading diverse teams. We talk about listening, holding silence, when to ask questions, psychological safety, and how sharing our own stories makes it a two-way dialogue. We also share deeply personal stories including how the struggles and the suicide of Ed's friends caused him to rethink his career and the vLancer app was created. This episode was close to my heart, and depicts everything to why founders and entrepreneurs do what they do. Put the heart back into humans. ** I hope you enjoyed this episode of Conversations with Quiet Leaders.   A podcast dedicated to helping you to lean into the power of quiet, and how to harness your strengths to bring about your dreams that will  shape your future.
